River Spinning Rod?

[Mack 92]

Looking for a spinning rod for mincing about on the Tees, got my eye on a 7ft multi-pc 5g-30g rated rod............ or do I need something around 3g-15g considering I’ll be climbing in & out of bushes all day looking for Trout, Grayling (Pike?) Tadpoles & Sticklebacks!

 

Is there such a thing has a “cast & spinning rod”?

 

I’m using a 30lb boat rod to spin with at the moment & that’s doing the business.

I would use the 5g-30g rated rod, more of a wider choice with the lure's, but the 3g-15g will be great for ul type lure's, jig head's, mag worm's, smaller type lure's that will suit trout and perch, and also pike.

A 7ft daiwa whisker, not to hard on trout and have landed salmon up to 12lb on mine and pike to 15lb. I have a few daiwa rods never had a problem with them.

Drennan esox spinflex 9ft, i really do like these rod's, especially for pike, but also stalking carp, bit of a allrounder, the two and a half test curve help's, i've used it for floater fishing when it's been the only rod i've had with me.

i use this 8ft bertus rozemeijer rod (think its spelled like that), had it since i was about 11 and its lasted me until now. Its got a 10-30 gram casting weight and its great fun on pike and little trout

Couldn’t get back on the site to read the thread from my last location but jumped in & bought a Michell Mag Pro Vertic Drop Shot 3-15grams & Shimano Symetre 750Fi & those Fcking Rapala’s Lures aren’t cheap!

Just got b back today & seen this kit…….not sure if I like it & the Symetre doesn’t fit the rod too good
